Since we are now getting down to a week before con I just wanted to check in on when we might be hearing more information about Chopped Cosplay. I got an e-mail saying the application was going to be forwarded to the right people, but I wanted to know if I should expect any further contact before arriving for the Friday event?Thanks all, see you soon!-Xeluu

The Chopped Cosplay Team Applications are CLOSED! Post #5 has been updated with day/time/location info on the Qualifying Round and the Teams are listed. There will be an email out today (I believe) to the team captains which will have the Team Handbook attached along with Qualifying Round information. Please check with your captains on that information.

The QR time starts at 6:30pm and after the four teams and one alternate win there will be the team orentation immediately following. It should all be done by 8pm so have your questions ready should your team make it to the show.

GOOD LUCK to ALL the Teams and Thank You for your participation in Chopped Cosplay 2014! It's going to be a FANTASTIC SHOW!SquidgesB

Is the qualifying round based on AoT as well?

There is no "theme" for the Qualifying Round.

Oh! Okay! I was just curious. There were only meetings the last two years.

CC Team captains look in your email for Chopped Cosplay Qualifying Round information. It has been sent.

I don't know if anyone will be able to answer this in time (staff or previous Chopped Cosplay participants) but I'm hoping so:For the qualifying round there's no theme: does that mean my team gets to pick a random character and make it? Or will we be told something/someone to make?Same thing for the main event if we make it past qualifiers, are we given an AoT character to make? Or do we pick one? I'm just trying to figure out what to expect given the rules that were sent out regarding what you can and can't bring. (I'm not sure reference images make sense unless we choose who we're making.)

For the actual competition you choose what cosplay you are making. In the past anything related to the theme has been fair game. I was also wondering about the qualifier, I have an idea of what our team might make but I'm worried that I'll show up to the qualifier and be told we have to make a specific kind of prop or something.

The team captains were given info to distribute to their teams. There is a contact person that the team can ask their questions to.

I was the Film Guy at the event. All I can confirm is that there is footage, and B has it. I will try and do an edit myself of it, but its her footage and I am one to respect her wishes of doing one herself. do note that she usually recovers from con for a bit, and then she is back on her feet.
